|. :. circuit court, Philadel phis, to compel
the railroad company to account for the sum
Sl5., which, they allege, the company re-
tanned from their wages with the understand
ing that it WAS to be invested in the stock OF
the company for the benefit of the conductors,
Ne petitioners complain that the money
has not been Invested, but has been
used as If it belonged to the company. The
table annexed TO the petition, prepared by the
Reading officers, shows the total amount
withheld TO be 500 0SS ol, the contention OF
the company being that the conductors are
entitled to only as much as the shares would
yield. The men ask the court to hold the
company liable to account rs for money re-
ceived with interest, until 1t 10 SHOWN
that the money has never been paid to
the owners or invested In good faith
for them. The statement of extra pay Of pas
senger conductors OF the Reading to January

likely that a sunstroke caused him to take
the tumble which proved 80 disastrous. He
was so badly used up that he will have to be
